Most suspect that this is a form of respect and appreciation given by Dedi Mulyadi to his late first wife, Sri Setyawati. Because Maula Akbar is the son of Dedi Mulyadi's first wife who died when Maula was 3 months old.
"It's a special seat for the deceased, his wife Alfatiah," wrote the netizen.
"I really love and respect his first wife who has passed away until her place is provided, even though she is only a symbol. As if she still exists, so sweet," commented another netizen.
"Kang Dedi's first wife has died, maybe as a symbolic form of the late deceased," said another netizen.
